would you ask them?

Dodgy tash, scratty mullet, tinnie permanently welded to one hand. Three sheets to the wind by lunchtime and scrapping over ropey sheila's....

Usually spotted wearing shorts so tight they look spray-painted on, a faded singlet from a long-forgotten B&S Ball, and travelling in packs of similarly equipped specimens....

Vocabulary consists largely of "farkin-ek" and "farkin-cnt" which, while charming in its own way, lacks the sophistication and cultural refinement of a properly delivered "fukin-ell" and "fukin-vvanka"...

Truth be told, I encountered a mini-colony of them on holiday a few years ago.

I'd ended up on crutches with more luggage than a family of circus performers. The wife was worried about how she'd manage it all herself, seeing as I was about as useful as a horny aussie fightin' over a prized ewe...

"Don't worry," I told her. "One of those mulleted, moustachioed ambassadors of Australian culture will put down his VB long enough to lend a hand"...

Sure enough, within minutes one wandered over. Then another. Before I knew it, our luggage operation had become a community project.

.... And, despite appearances, they were absolute gentlemen. Polite, friendly, helpful, salt-of-the-earth blokes. One even dropped an F-bomb in front of my young son, immediately stopped mid-sentence, apologised to him personally... before walking off and saying "y'know what, those Brit cants where alright"...

Which just goes to show: never judge a book by its mullet. Beneath every suspicious moustache and singlet lurks a decent bloke who's only three VB's away from helping a complete stranger move a suitcase.

No good asking, He won't know.

Good guys, but most aren't that bright.

The guy below would fit the description, dressed appropriately and most don't have a healthy diet.

Gotta love the land of smiles where even a charmer like him can get his hands on the opposite gender with just a mere bit of cash.

Living the dream...

Fat pom that,NB the no Vegemite toast hold . Definetly no bogun there.

I assume you are talking about redneck Austrailans so firstly, I would use the correct spelling..... Bogan.

Bogan to me is a low class Aussie

I guess the English equivalent of a Chavs

Oh don't be classist !

Like a bow and arrow gun ?

Boganus Australis, one of Australia’s most fascinating native species, can be identified by a number of distinctive characteristics. Observe the male in his natural environment. He is rarely found far from a modified ute and communicates through a complex series of vocalisations, often beginning with “nah yeah” and culminating in a detailed account of an incident that allegedly occurred in 2007. The species displays a remarkable ability to survive on a diet consisting almost entirely of beer, meat pies, and vague memories of better times.

Contrary to popular belief, one should never approach a Boganus Australis and ask whether it is a bogan. Such direct interaction may cause the animal to become agitated, resulting in a lengthy explanation as to why his cousin’s mate could have gone professional if not for a knee injury. Instead, the experienced observer remains concealed and waits patiently. Before long, the bogan will identify itself through an instinctive behavioral display involving a Southern Cross tattoo, a loud exhaust, or the phrase, “You know what your problem is, mate?”

Yeah right here…

Surly bullies who like to fight all of the time. Over nothing.

Low education and always in someone’s face about it.

Is this ringing a bell for anyone?

Chang singlet vest, covered in tattoos, gold (fake?) chain, signet ring(s) ................are good indicators.

Why are you repeating the exact same topic so soon?

opal hunters who live in a cave in coober pedy ?i get the idea

do boguns carry a shank .?
